TapeTiger

TapeTiger is the best hockey tool I have ever bought. Period. End of Story.

This little gadget which I picked up for $14.99 at my fav local hockey store Valiquette’s is essentially a specialized cutting tool for removing tape from the blade of your stick.

All you do is simply slip the edge of the device under the tape at the heel end of the stick and simply slide it down the blade and BINGO! the tape is cut down the middle and you can peel it off like a banana peel.

Now that sounds handy, but realize that I tape my stick EVERY time out. I don’t know why I do it and I am afraid I have become a bit superstitious about it, but it is what I do. 

I would post a link to the product but puzzingly I can find no mention of it on the world wide web!

So you’ll just have to head off to Valiquette’s.

A note about ‘The Rocket’

A few people have asked me what's up with the image at the top of the page. Well, it's an image courtesy of Marc Audet. Along with being a weird hybrid Calgary Flames and Ottawa Senators fan, he is also one of the region's top illustrators. You can check out more of his work at Rocket 57
